The Day We Had a Nasty Biting Encounter

The holidays come with a lot of excitements and impulses. We do things we might not normally do in our right minds. It might be because of too much adrenaline pumped in our already hyped up bodies. But this is more than that. The holidays bring out the crazies in us so to speak.

During this Christmas holidays, a group of friends decided to pull a prank they had seen on the Internet on one of their colleagues.

They kidnapped Tony after he had passed out from drinking and took him to one of the forest reserves in the country. Tony was always bragging about his survival skills and how he could survive in any jungle in the world. This was meant to be a silly joke until it turned into a night mare for both Tony and the group.

This was a safe place with no wild animals, only bird species and plenty of butterflies. So they left Tony tied to a tree and hid somewhere in the bush to see what Tony would do. He woke up only to find himself tied to a tree in the middle of nowhere with no one in sight. He did not know what had happened to him so he tried to wriggle out of the ropes.

When he realized he could not, he started to panic. He yelled at the top of his voice for help but no one came. So he started to talk to himself to keep sane. At this point, Tony’s friends had had their share of fun when the tables turned. They were suddenly attacked by gigantic ants.

They all ran out of the bushes like scared little children screaming their lungs out, forgetting what they had done to Tony. When Tony saw them, he forgot his ordeal for a moment as he burst into laughter. He could not help but laugh at the ridiculous scene his friends were making.

This went on for a while until they all got every little ant off their clothes. They untied Tony who was still laughing his head off and headed home. After this ordeal was over, Tony’s friends all went back home having been taught by Mother Nature that what goes around comes around.
